Gaining Weight

November 7th 154lbs---------------------------January 29th 170lbs
I have heard people say that P90X is not good for everyone because it is just a program that makes you burn off a lot of water weight with high intensity cardio workouts.  I am here to show that this is not true.  My most recent round of P90X I quit running my 3-4 miles per day and did only P90X with a few modifications to see what the results would be like.  I take Vitol's Russian Bear 5000.  I gained 16lbs.  Vitol Russian Bear 5000, Ice Cream Chocolate 4-Pounds

If your plan is to loose  20-30 lbs in  the 90 days.... this is easily achievable.  Put a 100% into your workouts, use low weights, follow good nutrition, and do high repetitions.

If you want to gain 10-15 lbs in muscle during the 90 days this is equally achievable.  Eat, eat, and eat.  Make sure to eat lots of protein rich foods as well as good carbs. Use a post workout protein shake.  Put in 105%  and lift heavy reps. I was only able to do 6-7 reps on most workouts.

It is true that with the high intensity workouts you are burning off a lot of weight with cardio.  This is why P90X is so good for you.  You are burning off weight but you are also building muscles and muscles helps burn fat.   I highly recommend using this program! 
Do your Best ..... Forget the Rest!
